Vorta you have one of the best looking S5's. Very very clean setup! Do you have pics of setup being made? I think it's thread worthy if you documented making the parts and installing, etc.
Nicely done.

Thank you! I've documented most of the process, if not all. A lot of tables and tests to see what yields the best result. During my tests I've also discovered a design flaw which gives wrong temperature readouts to all users. Should I get enough free time I'll open a thread and go over it all.
Now I'm just waiting for the second miner to arrive to see them heating up the place in pair.Could you share the STL file ?? Im also planning to do something similar.
Thanks you
Thanks you
If I get some time to make a thread about my mods to the miner I'll also upload the STL-s of all of the printed components.
Got myself AntMiner S5 a month ago. I was surprised how bad cooling solution it has. Loud fan, bad heatsink design and a lot of air not even going through the heatsinks. After a month of playing with it and some 3D printing this is what my small rig currently looks like (just ordered the second S5):

Awesome mining bot!!
Put some arms to complete it
Thank you! Didn't see it as a robot until you mentioned it.
I'm keeping it on the terrace, rain can't reach it and there's plenty of fresh air for the miner to keep it cool. I've put it on the PSU because I noticed it absorbs some vibrations which you could otherwise hear in the room nearby during the night.
It's hashing 1.35-1.4Th/s (clocked at 425MHz), temps of the miner are about 42°C higher than ambient while hashing at that rate. 34°C higher than ambient at default clock. Which means I don't need to fear of hot summer anymore.

Really cool setup, looks like a better solution then usual horizontal placement everyone does.
I've noticed that even with a default fan, just putting the miner vertically will result in lower temps. It's no more than ~2 degrees but it's something. So I've decided to make it a vertical setup.
